Come and enjoy one or both of these beach cottages just one short block to the ocean. Recently renovated. A quiet, treed park with Intracoastal views is across the street. This is a great setting for couples. These cozy, air-

conditioned, Key West-style cottages is equipped with all the

necessities including recently added new HOT TUB! WI-FI!!

Parasailing, deep-sea fishing, windsurfing, boating, tennis, and

golfing(World Golf Village and Sawgrass are a short drive away)are

all possibilities for your days' activities. Or maybe a

day of antiquing and then dinner at a good restaurant is more your

style... Either way, you won't have to look far. We are located only 1 1/2 miles from historic St.

I love Vilano Beach! This cottage was the perfect getaway place for me: quiet, near the beach, and near St. Augustine. Perfect place for one or two people! Bob, Melinda, and Mark were very helpful and accommodating!

Owner's Response:

I have a great team that works to make ones vacation as nice as possible.

Not to mention it is great when a tenant shows their appreciation.

Stay toned as there is going to be a very extensive remodel the

last two weeks in September.

Disappointed

The cottage was dirty and stinky. The coffee maker and microwave were rusted and not useable. The furniture was stained. It was very uncomfortable staying there.

Owner's Response:

These are vindictive tenants who were looking for me to give them a deep discount from the very moment they arrived. I immediately knew what the were trying to do and refused their proposal. I had inspected the cottage and the place had been cleaned just the day before their arrival and it was definitely odor free. The microwave and coffee maker are on the older side but are completely usable, if fact it was being used by the very next tenant when I visited shortly after their departure . The sofa is brand new so if it was stained, they stained it. Additionally, knowing immediately what these individuals wanted I offered them a complete refund if they would find another place, however they choose to stay.

You will not find this type of review from all my any of my other tenants.

Thanks for the review, glad you enjoyed yourselves!

St. Augustine is my favorite small town, even after the hurricanes two years in a row.

We had a good stay at the cottage in spite of the cold. Bob was helpful and apologetic about the weather which was beyond his control. It was a good respite from Iowa weather. It is quiet and away from the "touristy" traffic but close enough to enjoy whatever you wish to visit. I would recommend this cottage with its big fenced backyard.

Dirty and in need of TLC

The property could use some TLC. The couch and reclining chair looked like something found on the side of the road that someone else threw out. My wife and I went to pull the hide-a-bed out to watch TV in the living room and quickly put it back. It was filthy. The couch cushions were all stained and ripped up. We did not realize there was no heat and the temperature dropped into the low 40's. and we froze the first night. No extra blankets. The second night we found a couple of space heaters. We tried running both but would blow a breaker every time. There was leftover stuff in the refrigerator from the prior tenant, a sweatshirt in the bedroom closet and large cobwebs on the ceiling so we were not sure if the place was even cleaned. The Backyard was very large and fenced in, that was the best part since we had a dog, although all weeds and in need of mowing. We were only there for 3 nights so it served its purpose of a roof over our head. It reminded my wife of camping. On the positive note, the location was great and the check-in & out process was flexible and easy.

Owner's Response:

WOW, this is a shock to me, my maintenance crew has been

on the spot for every time. I can only think that they got the schedule for housekeeping and lawn care mixed up.

I did not hear from the tenants regarding the heaters, they are hard to miss. As far as the furniture, I have not had any complaints in the past, but definitely look into it.

Great get-away.
